Proof that the 88 Camry outers aren't bullet proof when it comes to drag racing. I f'ed mine up pretty good. Enjoy the video!

Luke. That primemr2 site is awesome. Lots of really good tune up parts, and it looks like it's a pile of stuff that usually goes wrong!

Oh, and on a second note! I got to drive a friends real GT4 last night. That **** was BAD ASS! The right hand drive was a bit wonky, but after a few minutes of driving you start to get used to it.

Stock GT4. A friend of mine nearby picked one up from a military guy. It was such a pleasure to drive!

Hey guys! It's been a while, just want to get you guys up to date on all of the shenanigans, and provide pictures at the same time. Most of you have probably already seen a lot of this stuff on Facebook, but since this is my Project thread it should probably be included. Back in December I went to the track with my Dad and tore up the car pretty bad. Wheel hop and torque caused me to break my passenger front axle at the spline, and at the 6 bolt joint side. I also shattered the wheel bearing, and nuked the spindle. A buddy and I had actually performed a small modification on the vehicle for my day at the track. I decided to change up my screamer pipe just a touch. I also had my water-meth bung installed in to the new intercooler piping. (I DID NOT DO THE WELDING ON THIS IT WAS JUST MY IDEA). I have since fixed the car, and it is now back on the road enjoying the usual shenanigans.

The dump valve through the hood vent is such a baller idea!

Very, very dope, sir.

That spindle/axle damage looks horrendous; the sound it made when it went must have been something to hear! Glad everything is back together and that shes back on the road. We need to get a meetup or party happening this summer to chill and shoot the ****.

PS: Got that coolant issue sorted - it was definitely the rad. fan cooling switch; thanks bud!

I've been looking at a set of Enkei RPF1's. Getting pretty annoyed that the best options for offset are only available in 5x114.3! I want 17x8 5x100 25mm offset! Is it too much to ask???

The surprising thing is that it barely made any nois at all! Just a real low pitched thud, and then the car wouldn't move.

That or just buy a set of 10mm spacers for the 17x8 +35mm, would be the cheapest and easiest solution.
